Your new company This well-established business providing IT services to schools across the North West has an excellent reputation for the high level of service they provide to the primary sector, and they have approached Hays looking to add to their team. The business has been established for over 20 years and therefore has developed excellent relationships with schools across the region, with a particularly strong presence in the Merseyside area and this particular role will be based in the Wirral area, where you will become an integral part of this collaborative team. Your new role Reporting to the IT Service Director, you will be responsible for providing a high level of IT support to your cluster of primary school which will be based in the Wirral area, working closely with leadership and teaching staff to ensure excellent IT provision.

As an IT Technician in the education sector, you will be working with Apple devices, managing tablets and iPads, as well as mobile devices and working on bespoke platforms unique to this sector, therefore allowing you to further develop your experience. What you'll need to succeed In order to be successful in securing this position, you will ideally possess IT support experience in the education sector, having worked for a school, college, trust or for a managed service provider supporting schools. You will have a passion for delivering a high level of IT service, as well as be an excellent communicator who is able to build relationships with both staff and pupils.
